I have a flex application that uses the actionscript navigateToURL function to go to another system. However, a third party app that needs to be integrated checks for valid links by looking at the HTTP referer header, and it seems like that header is blank when using a navigateToURL call.
Is there a way in actionscript or javascript to programatically generate a url and go to it with a correct referer header?
I've been using the Flex "HTML" component in my AIR 2.7 project. It's a wrapper for the HtmlLoader class. The problem is that empty referers in HTML headers are automatically set to "app://[appname].swf". This is not standard as default referer behavior should be to not set any referer at all. The consequence is I'm getting denied access on certain websites using iframes (as location changes from an iframe set an empty referer). I have no control over those requests has no event is fired when changed the source of an iframe.
I have thought about the possibility of intercepting all network calls and setting the referer to empty when necessary before sending the message. My app is only a container in wich a module is loaded for easier updates so maybe I could set up a proxy on top or something like that. Is there any way to intercept network messages in Flex??

View 2 RepliesI have an embedable widget. For each impression, I would like to track the referrer (the page where the widget is embedded onto). Right now I am using ExternalInterface to use javascript to check window.location.href when its available, however, I am finding that most of the time I am unable to set the referrer.
I not using javascript correctly to get the referrer?
what i need to do is getting the Browser URL. problem is i only have access of FLA file. the SWF file is displayed in an iframe and that iframe will be displayed in some remote server. e.g.
www[dot]parent[dot]com this is the container page of which im trying to get the URL.
www[dot]child[dot]com this is the page that will be displayed inside the parent page iframe and my SWF file will be in in that page.
is there any way i may get php referrer ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERRER']) info into the FLV file?
I have been doing freelance work for a client over the last year, who has asked me NOT to post any of that work on my portfolio, since his clients will see my portfolio's address in their referrer logs (with google analytics.) However, I found this article: [URL] Which seems to state that flash can't publish referrer information. If this is true, great, but I'd like to offer my client some way to know for sure that my site isn't showing up in these referrer logs.
View 1 RepliesIn IE and Chrome, if your swf object requests a url (mp3 file for example) it will also pass the HTTP_REFERER in the request. The HTTP_REFERER will be the url of the swf object. This does not happen in Firefox. The HTTP_REQUEST is always empty. Is this some option in the swf code, bug in flash or limitation of the browser?
View 1 RepliesI need to set a value for the Referer header when making a request to my local proxy script from Flash. As recommended in this question: Facebook Proxy Loader Security, I need to check the HTTP_REFERER to test if traffic is coming from my own domain. The problem is that when using a loader like the code below, no Referer header is sent.
package com.utils.loaders {
import flash.net.URLVariables;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

According to the Flash docs: [URL] there is only very limited support for HTTP headers in Flash Player, and Referer is prohibited. Is there anything I can do here other than have my proxy check that $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] is empty? (and that seems like a fairly large hole in security right there)
I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

I have buttons in my header and the header has animations on it so I have no choice but to place the buttons deep inside the header movieclip. Now, the problem is that the actionscript on the main timeline can't access the buttons.
Here is a sample of my actionscript:
about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
If I place the button on the main time line. I get no errors. But when I place the button deep inside the header, I can't seem to access it.I checked the layers and it indicated "Scene 1", "Header2", "Header", and at the very end of that are the buttons so I tried doing this:
Scene1.Header2.Header.about.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, clickSection);
I obviously failed.
I am trying to create a header with a menu bar that will be embedded at the top of each page of the site. I have it looking like I want it, but I am having trouble making it do what I want it to do. I have three text areas that I have made into movie clips. I want them to "fade in" one after the other, then stop with all three visible, then wait for a click on the menu bar. I can make them fade in, but not stop. I have tried several different things, but no success.
View 1 RepliesI have created a swf (image1.swf) that has 2 "tweens" in it with a "stop" action at frame 20. I loaded the swf file correctly (into the current swf file "document 1") and it works the way I want it to by running and stopping at frame 20, code: on (release) {loadMovieNum("image1.swf",30);} The question I have is, is it possible to hit a button in my current swf file "document 1" and have it jump to a specific frame and play in my other swf file for instance jump to frame 21 and play to frame 40 in the image 1.swf. file?

I want to make my SWF be on the very top of the page, but beneath the header. The SWF automatically adjusts its size based on the browser's; I want it to take up as much room as possible at all times while still being able to see everything, which I have.
The problem is 2 things: one, I have something flying in and out (from the top) and you can see it in the white-space around the SWF when it is not in on the stage. Two, the whole vertical alignment thing. I want it to be DIRECTLY under the header, not centered.
I'm using Dreamweaver to make this webpage by the way.... I'm not really sure which end this is- Dreamweaver or Flash...
I have been researching all day and there are many different solutions, none that are straight forward. I am currently in the process of making a website in Dreamweaver which has a flash header. Problem is the flash header reloads when you go to every page. Is there a simple (I'm a noob) way I can get the flash header to stay open at the top of the website, and the content of each page just change when you go to each page. Thus the flash header and nav buttons do not reload on every page. To review the pages so far; [URL]..

View 2 RepliesI can't seem to include <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> when creating XML in AS3. note: I am not trying to read it in, I need to create XML to save/process elsewhere.
var myXML:XML = <ROOT><myChild>test</myChild></ROOT>;
trace(myXML); //this works
var myXML2:XML = <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><ROOT><myChild>test</myChild></ROOT>;
trace(myXML2); //this DOESN'T work - it is blank
I can only include the header if I treat everything as a string, not as an XML object.
How do I set the color of the text in the header of the TitleWindow? I've changed the color of the header itself by using 'header-colors', but I haven't figured out how to change the color of the text in the header.edit: some code:
My css file:
.popupWindow
{
[code]......
I would like to know if it is at all possible for AS3 to grab header information and process it? I am trying to avoid having to use PHP to get the information, then store it in a DB, give it to flash, then go and delete it again, or something alike.
Basically the flash is waiting for three variables that get sent through the URL, right when it gets initialized, then once it gets those variables, it can determine where to go next.This is for a Facebook application, and I am using FBML to embed the flash.
